I just found out I’m pre-diabetic. As a 19 year old, I’m f*cking furious with myself for ever letting myself slip this badly.

I probably needed this wake-up call. It’s time to lean out.

Saw a calf thread but had nothing to contribute there. But I’ve a confession here:

Long ago, my training partner and I were doing calf raises on the leg press. Back then, I’d never done them on the leg press before so I didn’t know what weights would be sufficient so I started light.

So we increased weight with each set and it was only by the 6th set that I found a good weight for a set of 25. But my partner decided to increase the weight again after that. So I did the same for the next set. In the end, I think we did somewhere around 15+ sets before stopping.

After that, I asked him what was that all about. He said he thought we were competing since I kept increasing the weight during the first few sets. I said I only started increasing the weight after the 7th set because I thought he wanted to compete with me.

But then, the next day, BOTH of us couldn’t walk lol. It got even WORSE on the third day We were hobbling around campus looking like idiots. This lasted for a week. It was the worst soreness I had ever had in a muscle until I tried Deep Water. But you can still walk relatively normally with sore upper leg muscles. You can’t do the same with calves lol.

EDIT:

Still on the subject of calves.

I hypothetically did a 1 month cycle of a designer prohormone with the active compound being methylstenbolone. It was legal at the time but I hypothetically used a test base so this is all still hypothetical. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s more powerful than TREN. Hypothetically.

When I hypothetically came off though, I woke up in the middle of the night once every other night with CALF CRAMPS for 2 weeks and my wife was mocking me about being pregnant. Hypothetically.

This seems to hold true until you wake up without abs, or almost without abs, one day. Then all of a sudden its ‘damn, those beers / pizzas / iceacreams / buffets weren’t worth it’.

I confess that my definition of what constitutes a good training session has gotten progressively more lax over the course of this “quarantine “

The consequences for my performance, recovery and conditioning are apparently. It’s frustrating how quickly the body and mind regress when given the opportunity

I have never had abs so I am definitely still biased towards beer and fried seafood.

My digestive tract loathes tortilla chips (corn). Also unhappy with beans. I can make due without the beans from a taste/texture perspective for the rest of my life but these chips are good. Oddly, blue corn tortilla chips don’t have as negative an impact. Still a noticeable one, and immediate one, nevertheless.

Out of the pair of us, I’m way more sad about this. I’ll still eat it. Worth the… cost.

What kind?

He lifts real weights and seems like a mans man… so obviously football. Not soccer.

@dt79 now THAT’S a confession post! Bravo!

I confess I called an audible on my Westside for Skinny Bastards workout when all the equipment I needed was in use and did a leg workout that consisted of 29 total sets (including calf work though), and I have missed this kind of fatigue. I won’t be so nostalgic tomorrow when I’m bracing the walls to lower myself onto the toilet, but right now it’s great.

Oh, sorry man. Fall in the USA, tossin’ around the pigskin Football.

With all the fear around the virus, some people were against the idea of football games and groups of players or crowds of fans. Almost as if it was irresponsible to want to have a season.
